A wheelchair can help you regain mobility lost due to an injury or chronic health condition. Depending on the size and ability of the user, a lightweight wheelchair or heavy duty wheelchair might be for daily use or as an aid when you need to go a distance farther or longer than you can comfortably walk or stand. Traditional self-propelled wheelchairs have two large rear wheels and a pair of smaller wheels in the front. Advances in design and materials have made different wheelchair models available to suit different needs and body types. Lightweight wheelchairs are easier to maneuver as well as being easier to take on trips, when the wheelchair will be folded and stowed in a car trunk. Wheelchairs of all types typically support up to 250 pounds of body weight. For those with a higher weight, heavy duty wheelchairs, also called bariatric wheelchairs, provide a wider seat for comfort and stronger frame for durability and support. Heavy-duty chairs offer wider seat widths and weight capacity up to 500-lbs. These are folding wheelchairs, shipped assembled ready to use right out of the box.The adaptive equipment is built with a carbon steel frame, extra heavy duty front forks, dual cross bars, reinforced side frame and steel gussets capable of holding up to 700 lbs. The frame has a chrome, chip-proof finish and the upholstery is reinforced making this an easy-to-maintain and durable wheelchair. The mobility aid also comes standard with steel spoke wheels with chrome hand rims, extra large padded armrests for comfort, flat free 8" front casters and push-to-lock wheel locks. Footplates (sold separately). features Extra heavy duty front forks Extra large heavy duty aluminum tapered footplates provide maximum support and are attractive and crack proof (Must be ordered separately) Extra large, contoured plastic armrests provide comfort and support Footrests are tapered for comfort Heavy duty, flat free 8" front casters are adjustable in 2 positions Pow

Pregnancy comes with lots of changes, and that that includes wardrobe changes! As the female body undergoes significant physical and physiological changes, many find it difficult to get themselves organized. Many pregnant women seek a guide to maternity clothing, especially when the baby bump starts showing up.

WHY YOU NEED TO SHOP FOR MATERNITY CLOTHING If you are pregnant, especially if you are a first-time mom, the chances are high that you have asked several questions about maternity and maternity clothing, such as, "Do I really need maternity apparel? Isn't it a waste of money buying maternity apparel?" The fact is that shopping for maternity outfits is not a must, but you'd hardly get past your third trimester without needing certain maternity clothing items. You might be tempted to improvise, but the question you have to ask yourself is, "Is improving safety for my baby and me?" SHOPPING MATERNITY OUTFITS IS A NECESSARY STEP FOR EVERY EXPECTING MOM You need to shop for some basic maternity outfits because, as much as possible, you need comfort when you are pregnant.

The fact that the body can be full or satisfied while you still feel empty is evidence that the body is not you."Read More....

Vissco Elastic Knee Support for Runners Includes Athletic Tape
Running involves the constant movement and bending of the knees. As your foot hits the ground, if it is not placed correctly, it could cause your muscles to react by tensing up in response from the improper placement. In addition, if you misstep, you may trip and fall down, causing injury to your legs, knees, and other areas of your body.

Tape is not the only type of knee support available. There are also braces and pads that you might use. However, while these products are well suited to provide protection after receiving an injury, they tend to get in your way and hamper your range of motion as you run. Athletic tape, more specifically elastic sports tape on the other hand, adheres directly to your skin and is elastic, so it bends and moves without any restrictions. Because it simulates an extension of your skin, it creates additional support and strength to your knees.

It's happened to all of us - you start making healthy choices and get so motivated and excited that when you don't see results quickly, it's crushingly disappointing. Sometimes it's even enough to make you doubt your choices and slip back into old unhealthy habits. HOLD UP. Don't give up just yet. There are many plausible and fixable reasons as to why your weight loss may have stalled out! When you eat too few calories, your body goes into starvation mode. This is the biological response to start storing fat as quickly as possible because your body is unsure as to when it might get to eat next. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so the more of it that you cultivate, the more calories you burn… without even trying. You're not exercising enough.

Boys' Bedroom Blunders Boys' Bedroom Blunders Sex - it's exciting. But sometimes, unfortunately, it's confusing and disappointing instead. We'd all like to believe that we know what to do when it comes to sex, but blunders do happen. So what can you do to minimize wrong-turns in the bedroom? Here's a list of the commonest mistakes men make with women. Avoid these and you'll maximize both you and your partner's sexual satisfaction! Not kissing, or kissing badly A woman's arousal is greatly increased by kissing - both gentle and passionate. Women love the connection and it's a major aspect of foreplay. Think of it as "upper persuasion for a lower invasion". Diving straight for the naughty bits Reaching too quickly for the breasts or vulva is a passion-killer for women; it's more likely to annoy than to arouse. Take time to build excitement touching her body elsewhere. The skin of a woman is second only to her brain as a sex organ. Being too rough A frequent complaint women have is that men aren't gentle enough. Men generally want a firmer touch then women do - so keep your touch light. She may want a more forceful touch as she becomes aroused. Take your cues from her. Pushing her head down Women hate this passionately! Do not push her head down to your dick thinking it will get you anywhere good. Women resent this. Forcing her head down during fellatio Along the same lines - never force her head farther down on your cock. Yes, it may feel good, but she needs to control the depth and speed. You may gently hold her head, or stroke her hair or cheek. Take care to not thrust yourself into her mouth either. You may find blowjobs non-existent if you do this. Not warning her you are about to cum during oral sex Not all women like the taste of cum. Give her the choice to decide what to do. Latching onto her nipples Women's breasts are very sensitive to touch. Caress and stroke them. Don't thump, squeeze, twiddle or bite them (unless she's into that). Tou

Winter onset seasonal affective disorder (SAD), also referred to as winter depression, is a type of depression that re-occurs in people the same time each year and can last for the entire season. As the days become shorter and colder and less sunlight is available, some people begin to feel depression set in as well as anxiety, energy loss, increase in appetite, lack of interest in activities, concentration problems and weight gain. Women are diagnosed with SAD more often than men, yet men tend to have more severe symptoms. Family history of SAD, as well as how far from the equator you live, are also factors in whether you suffer from this type of depression. However, if you feel you may be suffering from SAD, there are ways to treat this depression and keep your mood levels more stable throughout the year.

Why More Equality? Our thirty years research shows that: 1) In rich countries, a smaller gap between rich and poor means a happier, healthier, and more successful population. Just look at the US, the UK, Portugal, and New Zealand in the top right of this graph, doing much worse than Japan, Sweden or Norway in the bottom left.

You are overweight for the most simple of reasons -- because you're eating the wrong foods, the wrong types of calories per meal, and you're also eating meals in the wrong patterns each day.Think closely about what we're about to tell you, since it's going to change the way you think about dieting...FOOD is more powerful than any prescription weight loss pills, because the FOOD that you eat can either make you THIN or FAT. You don't get fat because of a lack of exercising, that's a myth. You get fat because you don't eat the right foods at the right intervals each day.Also, the pattern that you choose to eat your meals each day is more powerful than any prescription weight loss pills. This is true because your body is like an 'engine' and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals each day, and if you don't eat the right foods at the right times then it won't burn those calories -- and you'll wind up storing those calories as fat tissue. (Hint: You need to eat more than 3 times per day to lose weight, but we'll show you the details later).Don't want to wait for details later. Go now and see this amazing 'diet'!Click Here

"We have a very difficult gap to bridge here," said Rep. Eric Cantor, the No. 2 House Republican. "We just can't afford this. That's the ultimate problem." With Cantor sitting in front of a giant stack of nearly 2,400 pages representing the Democrats' Senate-passed bill, Obama said cost is a legitimate question, but he took Cantor and other Republicans to task for using political shorthand and props "that prevent us from having a conversation." And so it went, hour after hour at Blair House, just across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House - a marathon policy debate available from start to finish to a divided public. The more than six-hour back-and-forth was essentially a condensed, one-day version of the entire past year of debate over the nation's health care crisis, with all its heat, complexity and detail, and a crash course in the partisan divide, in which Democrats seek the kind of broad remake that has eluded leaders for half a century and Republicans favor much more modest changes. With Democrats in control of the White House and Congress, they were left with the critical decision about where to go next. Obama and his Democratic allies argued at Thursday's meeting that a broad overhaul is imperative for the nation's future economic vitality. The president cast health care as "one of the biggest drags on our economy," tying his top domestic priority to an issue that's even more pressing to many Americans.

Of course the "we" in "We can't afford this" is the big health care monopolies (pharma, insurance, etc.). Supposedly, the country and people can afford the continued gouging by those special interests (up to 40% in some places this year alone!). Too, if the government were to find a way to "afford it" (disregarding that Medicare and Medicaid savings might pay for it altogether!), that would probably be on the "back" of the richest 5% and by reducing corporate and business subsidies (like those to oil companies, the military industrial complex, "big finance" bailouts and sweetheart Federal funds rates and "liquidity" pumping, non-risk underwriting for things like coastal flood insurance, etc., etc., etc.). Since that is the "invisible hand" that feeds most "conservatives" and Republican politicians, that would never do.

The Vitamin D Council carefully outlines that, while vitamin D has consistently helped individuals suffering from seasonal depression in experiments, it may not work so well in more serious cases. It explains that more research must be conducted before it can lay down more solid guidelines on dosages for countering seasonal blues, but suggest that 5,000 international units per day represents a sensible choice to boost mood, immune function and metabolic rate during the winter months.
